In this video I provide a full Nikon D5100 DSLR review.
The D5100 is a consumer grade DSLR that sits between the entry level D3100 and the D7000 as a very sizable step up from a bridge camera. I got this for €499 as a refurbished model with this Sigma 17 - 71mm f2.8-4 DC Macro lens, which is far beyond the standard kit lens. The D5100 has a 16.2mp CMOS sensor. The 3-inch LCD screen flips out and all the way around but isn't touch screen in case your wondering, however it is very sharp and I found myself using it much more than the viewfinder.
The camera can shoot up to 1080p video at 30, 25 or 24 frames per second but audio recording is mediocre, thankfully the camera does allow you to insert an external mic, so for video blogging purposes, I advise you either buy a very high quality external mic that will attach to the hot shoe or, record the audio to your computer separately. In terms of inputs, you've got USB video out, mini HDMI, GPS, and as I mentioned before, there's also a mic-in port. Battery life is excellent and the camera shoots to standard SD cards. It has an ISO of 100 - 6400 and will stretch to 25,600 with capability to shoot 14 bit raw, the saturation levels looks to be ever so slightly enhanced, which is no major gripe, I found my photos looked rich and colorful and the sensor works well in low light and is fairly noiseless.
The camera offers HDR mode along with a time-lapse function but shooting speed could be a little quicker. The build quality feels solid enough although it's obviously a step down from it's more expensive Nikon cousins. The D5100 is a great sub €500 DSLR that produces great quality images and perfectly serviceable HD video. Slap on a good lens and you've got a real winner.
Be sure to stay tuned for my next video in which I'll be testing the video capabilities of this camera.402 UserPageVisits

If you are looking for the lens that can provide you sharp images as well as excellent color and contrast then the Nikon 50mm 1.4G lens is the lens that you are looking for. The Nikon 50mm 1.4G lens is also considered a very versatile lens that will be perfect for general and portrait photography.

If you already have the predecessor of this lens then you will definitely find the upgrade to Nikon 50mm 1.4G lens rather a worthwhile step. More than that, it is also advisable to skip the previous lenses and get one of the Nikon 50mm 1.4G lens instead.

So, what makes the Nikon 50mm 1.4G lens a more desirable lens than the previous lens showcased by Nikon? There can be several features that the Nikon 50mm 1.4G lens possess that will certainly make this lens from Nikon a cut above the rest. Though there are some limitations that the Nikon 50mm 1.4G lens will have, the more noticeable features of this lens from Nikon will surely make up for the things that this lens is not capable of doing.

Initially as the lens is actually a prime type, you are going to make necessary movements with your feet when you try to compose the picture that you are going to take. While most of the digital SLRs actually have zoom capabilities, you should never be disheartened by this limitation as this can definitely make other people feel that you are indeed one pro photographer when you are in the field doing your thing. The second limitation to note would be the focal range of 50mm. It is a good thing if you have full frame digital SLR because you will be able to note that the 50mm is indeed a 50mm. However, for those digital SLRs that are not full framed, you are going to find that the 50mm focal range is equivalent to 75mm. For this, you are going to need to move backwards when you are trying to capture an image of a group of people. With this Nikon lens, you will be able to produce sharp images. However, the corner of the image will actually show a lower contrast.

All of the limitations of the Nikon 50mm 1.4G lens will surely be forgotten if you are going to take note of the added benefits that this Nikon lens will have. Aside from providing you with good picture and sharp images, the next top feature of this Nikon lens would be the AF-S feature which is the Auto Focus System that is designed internally to the lens and this is also rather fast and silent. You are also going to find the manual override of the autofocus mode of this lens beneficial as this allows you to change the focus without the need to change the mode to a manual one. Another great thing about the Nikon 50mm 1.4G lens is that this Nikon lens is actually 60 percent faster compared to Nikon lenses at f/1.8 when it is set to its widest aperture setting.

And now I’d like to invite you to see sample images, full optical test and other customer feedback on this lens at www.photoseis.com/nikon-50mm-1-4g.If you think this lens is not for you, see the alternative at www.photoseis.com/nikon-50mm-1-8/.
